“Jesus paying for the sins of everyone is an insult to those who paid for their own sins.”

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Biden: Oh no. We’ve upset Big Pharma again.

Meanwhile over at truth Social, the former president is busy confessing to crimes.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

I was confident that someone would point it out and thought why not me.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

HAHAHAHA Ken Buck Fucked Lauren Boebert (Figuratively!)
This just in:

U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert said Wednesday that she will not pursue the Republican special election nomination to replace U.S. Rep. Ken Buck in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District after he departs Congress at the end of next week.

Boebert is still running, however, in the Republican primary to be the GOP nominee for the November election in the 4th District.

In a written statement, Boebert called Buck’s resignation “a swampy backroom deal to try to rig an election” for her opponents.

“Forcing an unnecessary special election on the same day as the primary election will confuse voters, result in a lame duck congressman on day one, and leave the 4th District with no representation for more than three months,” she wrote. “The 4th District deserves better.”

Buck apparently quit without telling Pastor Mike in advance, cutting the R majority in the House down to a couple (depending on health, etc.).  Part of the reason for Buck’s abrupt resignation probably lies the rules for special elections in Colorado:

Whoever wins the Republican vacancy nomination for the special election may have a slight advantage in the primary because their name will appear twice on the June 25 ballot. [Gov Jared] Polis said blending the two elections will save money, but voters in the 4th District may be confused about why there are two similar races on their primary ballot.

Republican and Democratic vacancy committees, made up of party insiders, will have to meet within the next few weeks to select their respective nominees for the special election. Vacancy committees are notoriously unpredictable.

Yes, they’re unpredictable, but it doesn’t take a genius to predict that Republican “party insiders” in CO-4 won’t pick Boebert because they’re hella pissed that she decided to bring her carpetbag full of money and her family drama into their district.  Boebert is attempting to blunt the inevitable humiliation of not getting chosen by saying she’s not even going to run. (ETA: Also, she would have to resign her CO-3 seat to run in the CO-4 special, so Buck put her between a rock and a hard place.)  This is similar to a kid saying he didn’t even want to play with a toy after mom gives it to his sister.

The result of all this machination is that voters in CO-4 will have ballots:  one to pick the interim replacement for Buck, which will contain the party nominee for the seat,  and one for primary to choose the Republican candidate for the November general election.  Getting the nod for the special is a powerful endorsement and incentive for voters to vote for the same person in the special and the primary.

The bottom line here is that Boebert underestimated Ken Buck and he gave her a fuck-you, adios, you lose present going out the door.  You love to see it.

    C.R.E.W. does it again.

    Text messages sent by Homeland Security agents before and during the Capitol attack on Jan. 6, 2021 have given a never-before-seen glimpse at law enforcement’s reaction to the events of the day.  The messages were handed over after a lawsuit was filed by the Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, the watchdog group announced Wednesday.

    I had listened to CPR (Colorado Public Radio) yesterday afternoon, and when they said that party committees would each chose ONE candidate for the Special, and that Boebert would have to resign her current seat if she were selected and won the Special, I thought “aha, maybe that’s why Buck resigned now.”

    It became even more clear when I read in the Denver Post that Polis had to pick a Special between 85 and 100 days from the vacancy. He couldn’t punt and leave it open to Nov.

    Buck is a winger, but he’s from the era when Republicans actually knew how to do work and he was a state leader in the GOP so I’m confident he knew the ins n outs, and did not want Boebert to even have a shot.

    All that said, I’m thinking I’ll send a contribution to Ike McCorkle. He’s the Dem who I believe will get the not from the Dem committee. I’ll wait for it to be official, though. There will be a Dem primary happening on June 25 as well.

    “uniparty” = Signaling For Dummies

    (also a symptom of Dunning-Krueger, for what it’s worth)

    Speaking of Dunning-Krueger, Aaron Rodgers is “laughing at both parties”

    Rodgers has described himself as someone who may “lean pro-life,” but also said the government should not infringe on what a person chooses to do. “I don’t believe the government should have any control over what we do with our bodies,” Rodgers told political commentator Bill Maher during a September 2022 interview.

    “I realize I’m in the crosshairs of the woke mob right now,” Rodgers said on McAffee’s show. “So before my final nail gets put in my cancel culture casket, I think I would like to set the record straight on so many of the blatant lies that are out there about somebody who’s a critical thinker.”

    I am increasingly of the mind that RFK Jr…especially with this asshole as his veep choice…might just be a serious pain to trumpov and the GOP.  GOOD!

    May he (pleaseohpleaseohPLEASE) draw away RWNJ anti-vax kooks from trump in November!

    (and may trump embarrass himself/lose many, many partially sane Republicans to Biden as he flounders trying to bring the anti-vax kooks back into the fold)

    I admit I have some morbid curiousity about what comes next for Boebert. She has no real talents or skill sets, no connections or allies that I can see, and four mouths to feed (maybe five or six, counting pregnant DIL).

    Please do not read any concern or pity into my comment, I said my interest is morbid. You can can consider it preparatory schadenfreude.

    Contrast with the phalanx special forces types who cleared the crowd from in front of the White House so Trump could walk out to hold a Bible upsidedown for the cameras. A few thousand of those is what I expected at the Capitol on Jan 6.

    @Frankensteinbeck: Nobody in the executive branch has any influence on the Capitol police – they are overseen day to day by the Speaker and Senate Majority leader.

    That said, Capitol police rely on executive branch agencies for information and coordination, because nobody had considered they wouldn’t be on the same page. That memo by Chris Miller saying that National Guard could only be deployed on his personal approval is pretty damning. The generous take is that it was a ‘drunk Nixon’ protection against Trump using the national guard as he had wanted to do for Lafayette square. The cynical take is that the executive branch didn’t want some General watching TV to deploy them to put down the protest. Neither take is favorable to Trump.

    But Ruckus’s point is that Trump could have told people to stay home once intel surfaced the day before that the crowd wanted to storm the Capitol. He did the opposite.

    @Baud: I assume abortion didn’t come up?

    Accccctually, he “leans pro-life” (shock/surprise), according the the piece.

    Also (via WaPo)

    Rodgers previously criticized liberals and Democrats for not moderating positions he says are extreme. “What happens? Democrats put up Biden again, and expect him to win?” Rodgers asked skeptically in that 2022 interview with Maher. Rodgers said later in the interview, “I’m not on one side or the other. I’m laughing at both sides.”

    After Maher said that if Democrats abandon “woke” policies on gender affirmation, crime, race and education they would “win every election,” Rodgers agreed. “You’d win every election,” Rodgers said. “In a landslide.”

    “Keep me rich and privileged, and sure, I’ll support you, Dems…or maybe not…”

    @trollhattan: What you saw was everything the Capitol had available, but lacking the national guard which was turned out for the BLM events.

    Given everything Trump probably knew about the National Guard from watching TV, you could excuse his ignorant ass from thinking they exist solely to respond to activities by black people (sometimes helping them, sometimes not). In the period between 1950 and today, how often have we seen national guard that weren’t escorting black kids to school, responding to race riots, helping after Katrina, etc.
